Well it took a minute with my older drill bits and hand drill but I was able to get a decent enough dimple on the barrel that I am not too worried about the gas block moving. Now just gotta do some test shots and I'll put some rocksett into the set screws and we should be good to go.

I am in the process of getting all my bits and pieces together for my next AR build and the gas block I want to use is a set screw type and my barrel is not dimpled. I planned on getting the SLR rifleworks or KAW dimpling jig, but was curious if anyone had luck using a set screw GB without dimpling the barrel?

the UU kit turned out really nice, the color was a little off from the lower I had but overall was a really nice kit and a decent price point for a solid rifle. The only thing I wasn't a big fan of was the grip was a little chunky for my hands and the muzzle device. I swapped out a VG6 and sold the included tranquillo and came out $20 ahead.

I have one of the straight bows coming Wednesday for my next build. I built one of their ultimate upper kits for a coworker and it came with an MBT trigger and it sold me on them.
They have been $87 for a while now and their shipping times are much faster, used to be months of waiting now I got my ship confirmation within a couple of days.

I kind of like the FF rail ones, not sure what the price will be. I do wonder as AR-9 prices go down and options go up, which of these would be a better option. I do think the Ruger would look nice with a can on the end of it.
